Awesome Blog to read

My sister in law told me about this blog. The lady who writes this is an LDS lady. A couple of months ago she lost her little 14 month old baby in a drowning accident. She posts daily and she totally inspires me. I thought I would share this with you all. She is so honest. A couple of days ago she posted about how to help someone who has lost someone close to them and what to say and not to say and what to do for them. I was so interested. I love to read her posts. She amazes me. Read it and tell me what you think.... http://adailyscoop.blogspot.com .

Sound of Music

I went to Sound of Music tonight with Jaycee and we loved it. Mindy was awesome just like everyone said. I really enjoyed every minute of it. Luckily I got to hitch a ride with my Mom and Dad's friend. Thanks Deb! Anyway, if you haven't seen it, you should go.

This week is going to be quite eventful. (Especially without a car) I have play practice and Bunko tomorrow night, Play practice on Wednesday night, Le Miserables on Thursday night (with my hubby and no kids may I mention, hooray) , play practice Friday night and a birthday party to go to on Saturday in Enterprise. I better start calling for some car pools. ha ha ha I am excited because it is good for me to stay busy.
(It keeps me out of the kitchen or wherever food may dwell.)

Looking for an Morning Preschool

Hi everyone!

I have been scrapbooking the last few days. It has been fun. Jaycee likes to do it with me. I give her some pics and she'll scrapbook pages for her book. It is cute.

This week the camera broke, My water heater broke, my car broke down and I am on a diet!!! I know, I know, it CAN ALWAYS get worse. ha ha ha

Back to the real reason I am posting today. ... I am looking for a morning preschool for Kaleb. He is 4 and I have him enrolled in a afternoon one but it won't work with my kids school schedule. Does anyone know of a good Preschool???

Isagenix

So I started the Isagenix program 2 days ago and I am so excited. So far I have lost 6 pounds and I

Bye Bye Birdie pics

I saw this first picture on a friends blog that was in this show with me. I stole it and thought it would be funny to post here. (Thanks Rachelle) I see some very familiar faces. Two of my friends that went to Mesquite with me in fact. Don't you love little Joe's face in this???? I wish it would pull up closer. The bottom picture I couldn't get to zoom in at all. Sorry. The best part about the top picture is that Rachelle wrote a arrow to point to her and it also points to me so that worked out good. This show was so much fun. Now that I am in Secret Garden, all my theater day memories are coming back. It is so great. This bottom picture is the ONLY picture I have of me in Bye Bye Birdie. I was so happy to see the one on Rachelle's blog. Please send me more!!!!

Camping at Kolob

Our friends talked us into going camping with them this weekend. We went to Kolob and had a great time. I thought I'd share some pictures.

Jaycee, India and Acelyn.

Jaycee just relaxing on the hammock
We found a snake and the kids loved it.
This pic is funny cuz it looks like it is biting Kaleb's nose but it isn't.
Kasey (my bro in law)wasn't sure if he wanted to hold it till after he saw Kaleb do it. Kasey and Jake jumping in.
Here is Jake and Kasey after they decided to jump in the lake.
Then I made them both mohalks!!!
Here is the lake.... it was beautiful.
Here is our camp spot. You can see Jason and Kaleb sitting chatting by the truck.
Jake, Jaycee, Kasey and Acelyn (our friends daughter) She is 4 and has a major crush on Kasey as you can see.
Here is Liz and Pride. Our new friends from the ward. We actually knew them before they moved into the ward though because we went to Dixie High School with them. They are both Jason's age.
Here is my hubby taking all the kids out fishing.

I auditioned!!!

Some of you knew I was auditioning for Secret Garden but I haven't told anyone that I got the part of Martha. I am really excited and nervous too. I did the part of Lily in High School and Martha seems like a fun challenge so that is what I went for. I asked to be double casted so it won't be quite as hard on my family so that is what they did. The show opens on September 18th and closes on October 11. I will post more about it when it gets closer. The cast is AMAZING. I couldn't believe how many good singers and actors there were. My Mom, who is directing, said it was the hardest show to cast because everyone was so good.

Jaycee and I have been watching the video of Dixie High's production of Secret Garden in 1994 when I was Lily. I am just sick when I see how skinny I used to be. How could I let myself gain 100 pounds??? I sure wish I could go back and take care of it when I had only gained 10 pounds or so. Usually bigger people get bugged when smaller girls want to lose some weight to get back to how they feel good, but not me. I am always saying, "Do it now, before it becomes 100 pounds you have to lose!!" My kids see the video of the play I did in High School and say that it doesn't even look like me. I'm saying to them, " It is me, I promise! I used to be somewhat attractive." lol

If you haven't commented on my memory post..... it still isn't too late. he he he I have still been going to the gym everyday but I still haven't lost any weight darn it. I am thinking about Isagenix seriously, when I can get the money to do it.
